LOL I'm not going to try and name them, but I definately love the Tangerine Honduran and the, if I'm not mistaken, Apricot Pueblan! Gorgeous snakes

Well, the first one I would definitely have to say Sinaloan.... I agree with Jenn on the Apricot Pueblan... number 4 would be an Albino honduran?? Just a guess on that one.

Very nice diverse collection - Conant's are quite uncommon - it has a very clean look to the red bands - do they retain that into adulthood like the sinaloan's do? Are they as large - or more like the Mexican in size?

Are you breeding the Mexican milks? We thought we would sell our male but I am thinking about getting a female for him instead and I have not seen many of them available over the past couple years.

thanks,

mary v.

Thanks Vanderkm.
The Conant's Milk Snake is approx 48".
The Mexican Milk is approx 40".
I don't know if they hold there red. They are a new project.

Both my Mexican and Conant's milks are 2 seasons from there first clutch. I am looking forward to it.

I recently let the tri-colored honduran go and replaced it with a pair of Marc Bouchards Hondurans. 66% dbl het ghost. A great addition. Pics to follow.
